Will you be shopping on Black Friday?

Will you go shopping on Black Friday? Why or why not?

And my answer is, "He!! no! Because the last time I did, I had a Barbie doll ripped out of my hands at 5 am in Walmart, after enduring a cattle stampede to get to the toy aisle.

Way too much fun for me! :cheesy:

Uh, No...

I don’t get drunk enough to run amuck in the crowds.
Pushing and shoving like some boozer at a European soccer match...

Just spoke to a relative in law enforcement who had to pull an emergency midnight to 6 am shift at the local small Walmart ten minutes from my house. Picture this: almost 5,000 people waiting for the doors to open; all checking lanes open and lines going clear back to the pet supplies aisle. In case your Walmart isn't laid out just like every one of the 'baby' Walmarts in the country, those are scary-long lines.

I'm glad I was snuggled in my bed recovering from having eight active grandchildren at my house yesterday!

Stories like that are one reason why I do my Christmas shopping on line.

Happy Black Friday,
Maggie

My new son-in-law recently gave up his Walmart management position in the Chicago area. He is now attending a graduate program that the military is paying for as part of his GI Bill. But he did learn alot about their systems and did not burn any bridges on the way out thinking there may still be opportunity there in their international divisions. So we'll see how it goes.

Funny thing about Black Friday. Alot over people I talk say it's not always about the deals. It is the experience:nuts:
